Hargey condemns banner calling for east Belfast Irish language school to relocate 

Sinn Féin MLA Deirdre Hargey has condemned those behind a banner calling for an Irish language school due to open in east Belfast to relocate.

The South Belfast MLA said:

“This is the latest attempt to prevent those who want to experience and develop the Irish language in east Belfast from doing so.

“The Irish language is for everyone to share and enjoy, and that’s why it is flourishing across society.

“Those involved in the campaign to block the development of the Irish language in this part of the city must stop.

“Bunscoil na Seolta’s facilities have already been approved by Belfast City Council, and they should move forward without delay.

“Political and community leaders must make it clear that they reject these kind of actions which are hostile to those who want to enjoy the Irish language.”

The parties that caused the housing crisis can’t be trusted to solve it.

Sinn Féin will tackle the housing crisis head-on.

It has to be done. And it can be done!
